Again, do you know which motherboard you have? We need to know which FSB speeds it supports. There are 400 MHz, 533 MHz, and 800 MHz FSB Pentium 4's, and you could upgrade to a much faster one for a decent price.

If you want to spend $400 max, I'd get a GeForce FX 5900 (NOT "SE", NOT "XT", and NOT "ULTRA") for about $200. With the remaining $200, I'd upgrade your processor to a faster Pentium 4 while keeping your current motherboard and RAM. Which processor you can get depends on which motherboard you have. If ya tell us that, we can tell ya the processor you can get!
